Here's my can of spam...but I suck at circles...so I'll let someone else diddle instead of just putting one of Joan's around it.

Earlywine @ @ c \__/ ______________________________________________________________________________________________ remove ".NOSPAM" from my address to reply! ______________________________________________________________________________________________ I have to wonder if the reason why the media keeps throwing the word "Papparazzi"(sp?) about is that they are trying to separate themselves from these sick-o's...even though their constant use of this tragedy to sell advertising space is exactly the same thing as what caused it in the first place. STOP THE MADNESS-DON'T BUY THAT CRAP AND GET OVER YOUR FAME ADDICTION!
So many of us are frustrated by spam popping up in every corner of the internet. I thought it might be fun to post anti-spam ascii art. I was attempting to include my own contribution (can o' spam iside a circle with a line crossing it out), but it really, really didn't work out at all. I'll save face by leaving that out, but I would love to see what others will come up with. Perhaps some sig-sized anti-spam art would be nice too. I love all of the art I see on this group, keep up the good work! -M. Gage "SWM ISO ascii artists who hate spam" mhgage at ucdavis dot edu

Hi Michael,
From a can of spam
_________
(_________)
| S P A M |

I made after this picture: http://wwwtios.cs.utwente.nl/~kenter/image/spam.gif
I drew this sign for you:
______
. ' ____ `-._
,' _.-' `, ._ `.
/ .' ______/ / '. \
/ / (_____/ /_) \ \
; ; | S P/ /M | ; ;
| | | / /$&.| | |
| | | @/ /***,| | |
; ; | / /-### | ; ;
\ \ `/ /------' / /
`.`. / / _,' /
` . '--___--"' , '
ak `---___--"'
I used Joan's skull as template for the circles but I guess they could be
improved upon. Circles are just the most difficult thing to get right in
ascii art... For me that is.
Have fun with it :-)
